It was not a small trick that Wang Langtai used to prevent Yan Li from using treasures to protect himself. It was a skill that had been passed down from generation to generation in Yanming Villa and was created by one of the Sky Sword Sect Masters in the past. The principle was that through the process of condensing Sword Qi into Sword Energy and attaching the Divine Sense into it, one could spy on a more delicate and subtle world. If Yan Li had continued to use the "Zero Realm" at that time, then the Green Lotus Lamp would have been exposed, and he would have destroyed the "Zero Realm" through the Sword Eye.
The Sword Eye was in the shape of a water droplet. If there was something that could be climbed, it would be hidden on the surface. It could not be seen by the naked eye or the Divine Sense. Those Sword Eyes were attached to the cage that imprisoned Yan Li. After they were destroyed, they scattered into the ground, making it even more difficult to see. The conversation of several people from Cangjian Peak fell into Wang Langtai's ears.
Wang Langtai immediately knew the situation in the cave. Coincidentally, all the other members of the Thunder Department had arrived, so he asked them to form a formation and throw sword light into the cave. They did not aim to hurt anyone, but only to block the exit. Once the Sword Mountain was destroyed, all the members of Cangjian Peak would be crushed to death inside.
Luo Dalong was one of the few people in the Thunder Department who had not been blinded by hatred. However, when he saw the madness in the eyes of the disciples led by Xu Longxiang, he hesitated for a few times and finally could not say anything. Both sides had completely shed all pretense of cordiality. At this time, those who disobeyed the collective will were as conspicuous as a torch held high in the night. It was very likely that these lunatics would label them as traitors and nail them to the pillar of shame. He deeply suspected that Wang Langtai was taking advantage of the hatred of the Thunder Department, but he had no evidence, because he could not figure out the motives of the Law Enforcement Department. He began to doubt the "truth" that Xu Longxiang had mentioned, because Xu Longxiang was different from his peers. Seeing the Sword Prison collapse, he was more excited than the calmness of revenge. There was also an indescribable sense of relief, as if the truth had finally been "settled" and no one would ever question it again.
Wang Langtai saw the Sword Prison collapsing, but he didn't relax. He continued to sense the situation inside the Sword Prison through his sword eye. His expression quickly changed because Yan Li and the others were still fine. It seemed like there was some treasure protecting them.
"They're still alive!" He shouted to the Thunder Department. "Don't let any of them go. Kill them all!"
The ruins of the mountain suddenly burst forth, and seven or eight sword lights shot out, rushing toward the horizon. On the Pillar of Heaven Mountains, flying on swords could not be stopped.
Wang Langtai frowned and thought for a moment. "This traitor must have gone to seek protection from the Eldest Brother. You guys should unite and go to the Stone House to force the Eldest Brother to execute the traitor. I don't need to teach you what to do, do I?"
"Let's go to the Stone House!" Xu Longxiang didn't care about anything else. He had already thought of a plan. At the critical moment, he would stab himself with his sword several times to provoke the Thunder Department's hatred. He would threaten Feng IX with death. If Feng IX didn't give in, Xu Longxiang would divulge Xu Longxiang's secret and make him lose face as the successor of the Sect Leader.
"Wait!" Wang Langtai suddenly raised his hand, and a smile gradually appeared on his face. This smile seemed to have been on his face since he was born. "Yan Li, why didn't you leave? I am the supervisor of the Law Enforcement Department, and I can't let you play with your schemes," he said to the ruins of the Sword Prison.
Xu Longxiang was shocked at first, and then he was happy. He knew about the existence of the sword eye, and he didn't care why Yan Li stayed. He smiled hideously, pointed at the ruins, and ordered, "Attack! Attack! "
Countless flaming swords struck the wreckage.
They blasted Yan Li out of the ruins. Yan Li walked out of the ruins, and faced the army of the Thunder Department, without saying a word. Luo Dalong was anxious, not knowing what Yan Li was planning. Xu Longxiang couldn't care less, and he habitually guessed with the most evil intention, "Look at this bastard. He is one thing in front of his peers in Cangjian Peak, and another in private. He deliberately stayed behind to take revenge on us for offending him just now. This shows how arrogant he is, thinking that we are no match for him even with so many of us. How can you tolerate this? "
Yan Li said mockingly, "Xu Longxiang, in terms of manipulating people's hearts, your methods are low, and you have no bottom line. You can only make use of their hatred, but what if they know the truth? You are not Thunder Flame. They have no loyalty to you, and you don't have the prestige to do so. If you go and remove their influence, I think your end will be miserable. "
"Murderer, shut up!" An irritated Yuan Chen jumped out and led his subordinates into a formation. Very quickly, a Crimson Flame Sword flashing with lightning appeared. Like a sword embryo taken out of the furnace of hell by a giant, it slashed towards Yan Li.
Yan Li didn't dodge. A green light flashed on his body. When the Scarlet Flame Sword swept past his body, it was as if it was cut in half. Then, there was a sudden and abrupt scream. Not far away, a disciple was cut in half at the waist. There was lightning coming out from the cut part of his body. All the spectators couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
Wang Langtai was slightly surprised. Through the eye of the sword, he found the location of the Green Lotus Lamp, but he soon couldn't find it. This was because Yan Li looked at the dead disciple and gradually frowned.
"Let me say a few words." He took out the Leaving Cliff, leaving only the hilt and a small part of the blade. "This is my natal sword, it is called Leaving Cliff. After I killed Jiang Mingcheng at Dragon Order City, it was broken, and it hasn't been repaired yet."
Luo Dalong suddenly understood why Yan Li didn't escape on his sword. It wasn't that he didn't want to leave, but he didn't have a flying sword to use.
"I hope you all use your brains to think about how strong I, Yan Li, am to be able to kill Senior Brother Lei without a natal sword." Yan Li's expression was cold. "I originally didn't need to explain to you, but you all saw that if you attack me, only your people will die. If you continue to attack, it isn't an exaggeration to say that in the end, all of you will die, and I will live well. This is not what I want to see. Of course, no matter how many people of your Thunder Sect die, it has nothing to do with me. I am doing this for Eldest Senior Brother. I'm not narcissistic enough to think that Eldest Senior Brother is protecting me because he likes me. I think that even if you guys go against him, in his heart, you're all equal to me. You are no different from Senior Brother Lei. If you all die, it will be a serious blow to Eldest Senior Brother. "
For a moment, Xu Longxiang didn't know how to refute. Flustered and exasperated, he screamed, "What are you all standing there for? Quickly kill him to avenge Senior Brother Lei!"
The people of Thunder Sect looked at each other. They weren't fools. Xu Longxiang's behavior was too illogical. If he really killed the wrong person, how could they face Eldest Senior Brother?
Wang Langtai shook his head inwardly. He was getting more and more disappointed in Xu Longxiang. He smiled, and after attracting everyone's attention, he said slowly, "Yan Li, don't you prove that you are more suspicious? You deliberately broke your natal sword and spared Senior Brother Xu's life. If you didn't kill him, then Senior Brother Xu colluded with someone else to kill him? You made it impossible for him to defend himself. How cruel! As everyone knows, Senior Brother Xu's younger brother sneaked into Jin Ding.
Jin Ding, I don't care if he wanted to kill you or to observe the first-class sword master. Now that he is dead, you still won't let go of your brother. It shows that you will seek revenge for the smallest grievance. Now, you're using the same method to make Senior Brother Xu angry because of the injustice, so that he will act more like a murderer, and you can use this to get away with your crime. This kind of behavior is really despicable. "
This reversal of black and white, and calling a deer a horse, was deeply taught by Yang Qiusheng. The people of Thunder Sect were a little suspicious at first, but after hearing these words, they immediately swept away their doubts and attacked Yan Li. Dozens of sword formations surrounded Yan Li. Yan Li could only move and dodge. Gradually, he was forced into a dead end.
"Let me do it!" Luo Dalong suddenly gritted his teeth and rushed into the encirclement of the sword formations. He grabbed Yan Li and flew up into the sky on his sword.
"Luo Dalong is in cahoots with the traitor," Xu Longxiang said angrily, "Go after him and kill him!"
The disciples of Thunder Sect all lost their rationality. Nearly twenty thousand sword-lights chased after them.
Cleansing Stone Residence, the important place where Feng Jiu handled his affairs, Luo Dalong brought Yan Li down on his sword. They were immediately stopped by a Heaven Sect disciple guarding the entrance. Luo Dalong said urgently, "The Thunder Sect has gone mad. They want to kill junior apprentice-brother Yan. Ask eldest apprentice-brother to come out and stop them!"
Hearing this, that disciple's expression changed as he hurriedly rushed in.
Yan Li didn't recognize Luo Dalong at all. He asked in puzzlement, "This senior apprentice-brother … why are you saving me?"
"My name is Luo Dalong." Luo Dalong smiled bitterly at Yan Li. "Junior apprentice-brother Yan, I have been suspicious about this matter from the very beginning. Senior Brother Xu's behavior is too abnormal. Also, after you saw that someone from our sect had died, you stopped using that Divine Ability. So, you should be someone who is truly thinking for eldest apprentice-brother. Thinking about it this way, I feel that it is unlikely that you are the murderer who killed senior apprentice-brother Lei … "
At this time, Wu Qi ran out with some people, saying anxiously to Yan Li and Luo Dalong, "Eldest apprentice-brother had expected this, but there are intruders at the Pillar of Heavens Mountains. Eldest apprentice-brother has brought people over!"
Just as Luo Dalong was about to speak, a massive sword-light cluster descended, surrounding Cleansing Stone Residence. Wu Qi's expression darkened. "Bring the two junior apprentice-brothers inside!" After the two of them were led inside, he ordered for the doors to be closed. Then, he faced Xu Longxiang coldly and asked in a stern voice, "Senior apprentice-brother Xu, you have openly brought people to barge into Cleansing Stone Residence. Are you trying to rebel?"
Xu Longxiang couldn't see Wang Langtai to his left and right, feeling a little flustered. However, he was already riding a tiger, unable to back down. He laughed coldly and said, "Wu Qi, don't flatter me. I can't be bothered to beat around the bush with you. Hand over the murderer who killed senior apprentice-brother Lei. Immediately. Otherwise, we will attack in!"
"Eldest apprentice-brother has yet to come to a conclusion. The identity of the murderer who killed senior apprentice-brother Lei has yet to be determined. Since you dare to barge into Cleansing Stone Residence, don't blame me for being impolite! Heaven Division, get into formation! "Wu Qi waved his hand, and the Heaven Division disciples in all directions appeared in a flash and got into formation.
There was a huge disparity in the number of people on both sides, because most of the Heaven Division disciples were fighting the devil race at the frontlines. They were supposed to be the closest disciples of the same sect, but at this moment, they were facing each other with their swords drawn.
Wu Qi clenched his teeth and swept his fierce gaze across the members of Thunder Division. "If you dare to make a move today, it will be considered a rebellion. The Court Of Sword will not tolerate people who rebel. Think carefully!"
Xu Longxiang was afraid that he would hesitate, so a trace of ruthlessness flashed across his face. Ignoring his injuries, he drew his sword and slashed at Wu Qi.
